In the business world, everyone is paid in two coins: cash and experience. Take the experience first; the cash will come later.

We must not be hampered by yesterday's myths in concentrating on today's needs.

You can't run a business or anything else on a theory.

If your desk isn't cluttered, you probably aren't doing your job.

You can know a person by the kind of desk he keeps. If the president of a company has a clean desk then it must be the executive vice president who is doing all the work.

When I come upon a man who has a gleaming, empty, clear desktop, I am dealing with a fellow who is so far removed from the realities of his business that someone else is running it for him.

It's better to take over and build upon an existing business than to start a new one.
